“Get the fuck out of London, you dumb fucks. Get to Bruges”. I didn’t even know where Bruges fucking was. For a while I’ve been trying to persuade the crew that taking in a game on foreign shores would be a great excuse to get away, have a few beers and take in some strange […]

The Road to Schiphol – Football Abroad
Thursday 24th June 2004. England v Portugal in the European Championships quarter-final and the Three Lions latest predictable failure on penalties in a major international competition. Where were you for it? Some were actually there. Some may even claim they were (why?). Most no doubt watched it on TV. And if you’re one of those, you’re […]

Snow, frozen pitch, match postponed, rehashed old shit on Gandermonium , blah blah blah. You know the drill. Still, looking on the bright side, you get to read the second of my reports about the Australian A-League from my business-come-lounging around trip back towards the arse end of 2008.

Not Quite A-League above – Football Abroad
We’re not bored. What gave you that idea? That we’ve done 3 updates in one day? Yeah, ok. We’re bored. Here’s a little diversification of the Gandermonium universe for you (one of a few we’re looking into). The first non-SUFC report we’ve ever done. The old site was very much Sutton orientated (unsurprisingly) and there was […]
